Favorite Game

This is a web app project for GameBanana which displays on user profiles as a custom module. It shows a favorite game including total hours on record from your Steam profile. It uses the built-in CustomConfig API to store user data directly on GameBanana, and the GetOwnedGames method from the Steam Web API to retrieve game data.

Usage on-site

1. Go to the app page and click "Install App".
2. Add the module in your Profile WYSIWYG Editor, or include <?= $d["_aThirdPartyModules"]["_sFavoriteGame"] ?> in your Profile Template.
3. If using Steam features, set your Steam profile and games library to public.

How to install

Set CORS-related HTTP headers to allow GET requests.

In module.php set your own domain for the absolute path to steam-api-handler.php, it must be used because the app is embedded directly into GameBanana.

function getSteamData(steamId64, appId, displayHours) {
    return fetch("https://lebdan.zumesite.com/favorite-game/steam-api-handler.php

In steam-api-handler.php set the include to the corresponding file with your API key.

require_once("/home2/lebdanzu/config/config.php"); //STEAM_API_KEY

The API key is declared in config.php.

<?php
    const STEAM_API_KEY = "00000000000000000000000000000000";
?>
